Given a string, determine if it has no repeating characters.

• A string has no repeats if it does not have the same character two or more times in a row.

has_no_repeats("hi world") should return True.

({test: () => { runPython(`
from unittest import TestCase
TestCase().assertIs(has_no_repeats("hi world"), True)`)
}})

has_no_repeats("hello world") should return False.

({test: () => { runPython(`
from unittest import TestCase
TestCase().assertIs(has_no_repeats("hello world"), False)`)
}})

has_no_repeats("abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz") should return True.

({test: () => { runPython(`
from unittest import TestCase
TestCase().assertIs(has_no_repeats("abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"), True)`)
}})

has_no_repeats("freeCodeCamp") should return False.

({test: () => { runPython(`
from unittest import TestCase
TestCase().assertIs(has_no_repeats("freeCodeCamp"), False)`)
}})

has_no_repeats("The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.") should return True.

({test: () => { runPython(`
from unittest import TestCase
TestCase().assertIs(has_no_repeats("The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog."), True)`)
}})
